Crochet Bookmark with a Delicate Flower

Crocheting a bookmark with a delicate flower is a delightful way to add a touch of charm to your reading experience. The intricate details of the flower make it not just a practical accessory for keeping your place in a book, but also a beautiful work of art. Imagine turning the pages of your favorite novel and catching a glimpse of the delicate petals peeking out from the edge. It not only marks where you left off but also serves as a sweet reminder of the joy of creating something with your own hands. So grab your yarn and hook, and let's add a touch of whimsy to your reading routine!

Materials:

  • Your choice of yarn
  • A crochet hook suitable for your selected yarn
  • Measuring tape
  • Yarn needle
  • Scissors

Instructions:

Foundation Chain: Begin by chaining as many stitches as needed to reach a length of 30 cm (or adjust for your desired bookmark length).

Row 1: Half double crochet in the second chain from the hook and in each chain across.

Row 2: Chain 2 (doesn’t count as your first hdc), turn your work, and half double crochet in each stitch across.

Row 3: Repeat Row 2.

Flower Creation:

After completing Row 3, slip stitch into the side of that row.

Switch to a smaller hook.

Chain 10.

To form the petals, chain 6 and slip stitch into the 10th chain from the hook. Repeat this step 5 times, creating 5 petals in total.

Finishing: Slip stitch back along the initial chain.

Switch back to the larger hook, make a slip stitch into the side of the first row, and finish off.

Weave in any loose ends.
